Jeff Clement

At least that’s how it sounds. The rumored return is apparently Jerry Sands, with another player or players also coming the Pirates way. Joel Hanrahan has been good, not great for the Pirates. He’s been a solid pitcher and the Pirates squeezed a ton out of him. Sands is 25 year old righty that can…

This one should be easy as the Pirates already made the right decision with Jeff Clement. Clement has been a flop at the major league level. Not that the Pirates gave up much for him. Really have to think the Pirates made out in that deal just by acquiring Ronny Cedeno. Clement was a longshot…

Mellie’s recap. It’s much more elegant and less angry than anything I would write. First Pitch: 7:05 PM EST Where To Watch: Root Sports, MLB.TV, FS-O Mike Leake, RHP (24) Mike Leake isn’t so good. He might be one of the most overrated pitchers ever. Honestly, he isn’t even going to win ten…

The most disappointing thing for me is that I want this to end. I don’t want to see any more Pirates games, I don’t really want to write any more previews. It amazes me that anyone still reads them with the Pirates being so bad, so I want to thank you for that. I know…

If you think the precipitous fall of the Pirates in the second half is insane I hope you read this email from Kyle Stark. Stunning. First Pitch: 8:05 PM EST Where To Watch: Root Sports, MLB.TV, FS-H Edgar Gonzalez, RHP (29) Yup. That Edgar Gonzalez. Don’t feel too bad though, he actually pitched better against…

I’m not sure what MLB was thinking yesterday. If the game was that important it could be made up at the end. Not only that but why was it even a night game? Most games at Wrigley are day games, including the other three games of this series. Why have a getaway game at night?…

What an absolutely pathetic display yesterday. Just downright awful. If this team were a horse it would be shot. They are heartless from the manager on down. I really have nothing else to say. Pathetic. Jared Hughes should be shut down, not used four times in five days. The guy is completely drained, but…

Looky looky another loss. Clint Hurdle still in the driver’s seat though. That really inspires confidence. I wonder if Neal Huntington will ever comment about the absurd lineups, and awful losing streak? Anything would be better than his awful cliches, and fruitless interviews to date. Throw us a bone Neal. Please…… The Pirates look to…
